Editor reviews

Dick Russell has compiled an important addition to the body of work seeking to makes sense of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, in 1963. Russell firmly takes the side of conspiracy theory but his journalistic approach will be of interest even to staunch skeptics. Russell discusses his personal history with the reporting on JFK, presents his own previous work, and the work of other investigations in an organized fashion. He builds on this base with newly declassified and researched material. For this audiobook Sean Runnette evokes, intentionally or not, the voice of news anchor Dan Rather with his equal-parts conversational and authoritative manner of delivering serious information.

Summary

Using newly declassified information, Dick Russell builds on three decades of painstaking research in On the Trail of the JFK Assassins, offering one of the most comprehensive and authoritative examinations of the assassination of our 35th president. Included are new revelations, such as the theory that Lee Harvey Oswald was subjected to “mind control,” Russell’s personal encounters inside the KGB headquarters, and new information gleaned from an interview with Oswald’s widow. Russell here comes closer than ever to answering the ultimate question: Who killed JFK?

Dont waste your money

What would have made On the Trail of the JFK Assassins better?

A decent non fiction book does not need all the back ground information which you get with this effort

What will your next listen be?

I have no idea

Who might you have cast as narrator instead of Sean Runnette?

No he was alright

Still more answers need answering.

Having read a lot over the years of this assassination thus book brings up new details and questions that need answering. Will we ever know the truth. It’s now 60 years since the shooting. Worth a listen.

Exceptional writing. Exceptional history

A must read/listen. An author-historian striving for and acheiving balance and accuracy combined with spellbinding storytelling. (No, i do not know him.)

Many mysterious facts

Even in 2022 I learned more about the dreadful shooting of President Kennedy. Time carries on and yet the intrigue and mystery continues to grab a hold. Thank you for this in-depth study and a lifetime work on this dreadful yet fascinating story.
